Naruto Sakaki

Chapter 177 The Rumor Comes With Me
Sakaki walked swaggeringly on Konoha's main street, and after receiving the help of Orochimaru, he usually wouldn't have such troublesome things like being followed by Anbu before.

I saw Sakaki wearing Konoha Ninja's uniform, and the forehead guard was casually put on his arms. He was not afraid of any interrogation, because Orochimaru was very good at handling things. A uniform that anyone can get is nothing, it is really useful What's more, he got the sakaki tree into Konoha's weaving, and after checking his identity, he was really a Konoha man.

With Orochimaru's status in Konoha, it's not difficult to do this trick, as long as Sakaki doesn't run into Konoha's numerous ghosts, basically there won't be any trouble.

On the street where people come and go, Sakaki can deeply feel that the people in Konoha Village are full of high-spirited atmosphere. After all, Konoha has completed a one-vs-four in a certain sense, and can still fight. Katsuyuki's astonishing feat, the spiritual strength this brought to the Konoha people is unparalleled, and they are proud from the bottom of their hearts.

However, there are also some discordant arguments.

Next to the wine shop, Sakaki trees pass by.

The two Konoha ninjas exchanged cups, were drunk, and were speaking some drunken words that were usually suppressed in their hearts.

"Hey, you heard about that rumor recently!"

"It's the rumor that's been spreading all over the place, of course I've heard of it! Damn it, someone dares to slander Lord Hokage who led us to victory, he's damned!"

"I don't think it's unreasonable!"

"What? You kid actually think that the rumors slandering Master Hokage are true? Damn it, do you know what you are talking about? Master Hokage led us to defeat the Four Great Ninja Villages. Who would be able to do such an astonishing record? To? Hokage-sama is undoubtedly our Konoha’s hero, I don’t allow anyone to slander him!”

"Don't be angry! I'm not slandering Hokage-sama. Hokage-sama led us to win with one against four. I'm one of them. I have no less admiration for Hokage-sama than anyone else!
However, even though they won four battles with one enemy, it is an incomparable glory!For the enemy, we can laugh at them with this glory, but don't we understand in our hearts how heavy a price we have paid for it?If Hokage-sama hadn't been so passive at the beginning, the enemy might not have formed an anti-Konoha alliance, and we could have won the victory more easily without sacrificing so many companions.

In any case, I think Hokage-sama is indeed responsible for this! "

Having said that, even the ninja who firmly supported Naruto Sarutobi couldn't refute it, so he could only silently say it.

"Assumption is meaningless, at least it is an undoubted fact that Hokage-sama led us to victory in the war, no one can obliterate this feat!

This kind of rumor that raised objections after the fact has very sinister intentions!Rumors are likely to be spread by those enemies who have been defeated by us but are not dead. If we believe it, we will be fooled by the enemy! "

With a heart move, Sakaki walked into the tavern and sat down at the table of the two ninjas.

"Can you tell me the content of the rumors you said?"

"You are……"

The two ninjas looked at Sakaki with drunken eyes at the same time, and asked suspiciously.

"Sakaki Ray!"

"I don't think I've seen you before, where are you from?"

At this time, an identity card that Orochimaru gave him played a role. The two ninjas looked at it with drunken eyes, and immediately felt a little respect and even fear.

"It turns out that you are a member of the interrogation team. This job is very difficult..."

The two ninjas babbled endlessly, Sakaki showed a smile that concealed his impatience, and interrupted.

"Can you tell me the content of the rumor?"

"Did the people from the interrogation team come directly to collect information? This doesn't seem to be your job content... Well, forget it, let's talk about it first, I don't know where this rumor came from, and I am also the most supportive of Hokage-sama!"

The ninja who questioned Sarutobi just now took responsibility, Sakaki smiled mysteriously, and said while pouring wine for them.

"Don't worry, I'm just here to inquire about the rumors, so talk while you drink!"

The wine table is the place where people can let their guard down the most, not to mention the two ninjas who were already drunk. They drank the wine that Sakaki tree invited them to drink, and said a lot of things that were worth the money. intelligence.

Especially about the content of the rumors, Sakaki found it very interesting.

Although one of the ninjas swears at the end that this must be an enemy's conspiracy, Sakaki smells something different from it, and he thinks that it is probably done by someone inside Konoha.

Sakaki guessed correctly, the source of this rumor did come from within Konoha, and it was the root Danzo of Konoha.

When the war was far from over, Danzo had already started brewing a big plan for another day in his heart.

The "day" and "day" here undoubtedly refer to Naruto Sarutobi.

Spreading rumors is the first step in this plan.

In this war, Sarutobi's achievements cannot be obliterated. With Danzo's cunning, naturally he would not be stupid enough to obliterate Sarutobi's achievements. Such rumors are only believed.

Danzo only grasped the only flaw in Sarutobi, which was that at the beginning of the war, because Sarutobi was too passive, Konoha was once in a desperate situation, and then proposed some things that looked beautiful but had not been verified by facts. Hypothetically, based on this, discuss Sarutobi's responsibility.

As soon as such rumors were spread, they spread immediately, which shows that rumors are still very marketable. Although the audience of Konoha's rumors will not hate Hokage Sarutobi, at least they have planted a suspicion in their hearts. seed.

"Drink! Let's drink together! Brother Sakaki..."

Drinking together is the easiest way to eliminate the strangeness. After drinking for a while, the two alcoholics completely become brothers with Sakaki.

After getting the information he wanted, Sakaki left without shaking his head, and finally regained the function of eating, drinking and lazing, so naturally he should experience more when he has the opportunity.

Sakaki calmly drank with them, and drank until the night before the two ninjas staggered out of the tavern with each other supporting each other.

Compared with them, Sakaki drank more than a dozen pots of sake in a row, but he was not drunk and was very sober. Obviously, the third Raikage must be a big alcoholic, so that this body has such a high tolerance to alcohol.

Having said that, eating, drinking, and drinking are actually quite flattering. Sure enough, it is better to be a complete person than to be a person in the sense of personality.

"Sakaki Lei, next time we have a chance, let's have a drink together!"

The two drunkards said that they knew each other well, except for a false name and false information on a certificate, they didn't get any extra information from Sakaki.

Suddenly, a member of the Konoha Security Force walked up beside him, and he shouted at the two drunkards with a serious expression.

"Look at how you drink, go home quickly!"

"What's the matter? You don't care about our drinking. Hasn't the wartime prohibition on alcohol been lifted?"

"The prohibition order has been lifted, but the curfew order is still in place, and the time is coming! Look at your unrestrained appearance, you are not allowed to hang out on the street after drinking, if the time is up and you are still on the street, I will arrest you of!"

"Tch~ It's really annoying to use chicken feathers as arrows."

Drunk drunkards generally have a bad temper, but as law enforcement members of the security force, their execution ability is stronger, and the scarlet two-pointed jade sharing sharing eyes are revealed, pouring on the fiery heads of the two drunkards like a basin of ice water .

"Listen to Master Uchiha, let's go, let's go home!"

After the two drunkards left words full of sarcasm, they left angrily.

"Hurry up and go back, the curfew time is coming soon!"

The team members were obviously also irritated, so that they spoke to Sakaki in an unusually blunt voice, and when they saw that Sakaki turned his head absent-mindedly and looked in another direction, he became even angrier.

"Hey, did you hear that!"

Sakaki did not listen, because his attention was instantly attracted by a figure appearing at the corner of the street.

Uchiha Fuyake.

For a moment, Sakaki was filled with the desire to kill. This Uchiha Fugaku was one of his goals when he came to Konoha.

After opening the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, Uchiha Fugaku is already considered a Kage-level powerhouse. His intuition is so sensitive. The moment he feels the fatal hostility, he immediately turns around. The scarlet Sharingan opens and shoots a dangerous gaze. .

The eyes of the two sides met.

Sakaki didn't hide his hostility, Uchiha Fugaku faced the hostility and stepped forward.

"Lord Fuyue!"

The team members who were quite imposing just now, when they saw Uchiha Fugaku, immediately shouted very respectfully.

Uchiha Fugaku nodded to the other party, then stared at Sakaki and questioned.

"You seem hostile to me?"

"Any comments?"

"No, but I probably haven't seen you. Is it too abrupt for you to be hostile to me? I want to know the reason?"

"Do you need a reason to hate someone?"

Seeing the provocative posture between the lines of Sakaki, Uchiha Fugaku narrowed his eyes dangerously, and said in a cold voice.

"If so, I have reason to suspect that you are a spy who sneaked into the village, come with me!"

"What if I say no?"

"Then, in the name of the captain of the Konoha Guard, I will kill the rebels!"

"interesting!"

The atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense, and both sides could do it at any time, and both hands were willing to do it.

At this time, a similarly drunk figure walked over.

"What's the matter, this looks like it's about to fight!"

Hearing the familiar voice and seeing the familiar appearance of the person coming, Sakaki frowned slightly.

The person who came was none other than Jiraiya, who had drank and bid farewell to Sakaki before.

"Jiraiya, you came just in time, I'm about to arrest this spy!"

"Spy, isn't he wearing a Konoha uniform?"

While talking, Jiraiya looked at Sakaki with drunken eyes.

"Speaking of which, you are quite unfamiliar... Ah no, it looks familiar, and I can't remember at the moment, who are you?"

Jiraiya also appeared in front of Sakaki, knowing that it would be impossible to solve Fugaku Uchiha in public.

——Hmph, the future is long, let me let you go for a while!

Now that Sakaki had made a decision, he took out his certificate to avoid trouble.

After Jiraiya looked at the certificate, he handed it to Uchiha Fugaku to see. The certificate cannot be faked, because no one would have imagined that with the status of Orochimaru, he would do the thing of 'selling the village'.

"Okay, okay, everyone is Konoha's companion, not a spy, everyone takes a step back, there is no need to be like an enemy."

"Humph!"

Uchiha Fugaku glanced at Sakaki coldly, turned and left.

The crowd went back to their homes one after another, looking for their mothers, and soon the streets were empty.

Suddenly, a member of the patrolling security force suddenly felt a pain in the back of his neck, and felt a little dizzy for a while. When he came back to his senses, he found a double-folded note in his hand, and the outer layer of the note was written to your captain.

Therefore, Uchiha Fugaku got this note shortly after, he opened the folded note and saw the content on it.

——Uchiha, I, Sakaki, have come to look for you!
